We can run and out athlete anyone when we play small. Ball moves way better. Lane is clears out for drives.

Mbiya and Reeves just aren’t athletic enough. When TKR is finally playing they won’t get any run.

But our small ball lineup is getting destroyed by Duke's bigs. They are taking full advantage of switches. Also getting offensive boards and tip-ins.

We’ll get better at it. I think we’ve been practicing a lot with a big man in the lineup.

Stokes was our offense and should have 33 - 35 points

I'm pretty hopeful for the team after this one. Looked like a group figuring out how to play together still. And we have yet to see TKR.

ETA: Also Duke is extremely good.

@DanR Oh well, we're a football school!

Same. Duke is a lot closer to a finished product than we are.

This team has the pieces, the team looked better without Tre and Melvin on the floor because those two haven't played with the rest of the team as much yet. That will improve as they play more games. Same thing with TKR. I fully expect some rough games early on as the team works on their chemistry, but I'm excited about the ceiling of this team and as long as the courts and injuries don't strike this group down, KU will look like a legit national title contender by February.

@DCHawker If this game counted I would be upset that we didn't play Reeves more. He is the only way we could contain Ngogba. As is, it was a good time to try a small ball experiment.
